FFIEC IT Examination Handbook · Financial Institution IT · Evidence & Implementation Kit
Walk into your FFIEC IT examination ready, without decoding the Handbook booklets yourself.
Every examination domain handed to you as an adopt-ready control, from IT governance and information security through business continuity and audit to operations, architecture and third-party risk, with the evidence an examiner examines.
Examination-ready in a weekend, not a quarter.

Here is the honest situation. The FFIEC IT Examination Handbook is what examiners use to assess a financial institution's technology and information security, across its Management, Information Security, Business Continuity, Audit, Operations, Development and Acquisition, Outsourcing and Architecture booklets. Examiners expect board oversight, a risk-based security program, tested continuity, independent audit, controlled operations and managed third parties, and they expect you to evidence them. An institution that runs these well but cannot show the governance, the risk assessments, the testing or the findings tracking is exactly where institutions fall short at examination.

This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the FFIEC IT examination domains written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence an examiner examines.

What you get, the moment you buy

18
Examination domains as adopt-ready controls. Every domain, from governance and information security through continuity, audit, operations, architecture and third-party risk, written so you personalize and apply it.
18
Evidence-they-examine checklists. For each control, exactly what an examiner examines, plus where institutions fall short, so you close the gap first.
1
IT Examination Control Matrix, pre-built. Every domain in a working spreadsheet, ready to record status, owner and evidence location.
1
Gap & Readiness Assessment. Score each domain and the workbook returns your readiness as a single percentage, and exactly what to fix before the examiner arrives.

Grounded in the FFIEC IT Examination Handbook, with its IT governance and management, information security, business continuity, audit, operations, development and acquisition, outsourcing and architecture domains called out. Editable Word and Excel files.

Examiners do not just want it done, they want it evidenced
The Handbook's expectations are clear, but an examination turns on whether you can show them: the board oversight, the risk assessments, the continuity tests, the audit findings tracked to closure. An institution that cannot produce that evidence gets the finding. This Kit builds the governance, security, resilience, audit and third-party controls with the evidence an examiner asks for.

What one control looks like

This is establishing IT governance and oversight, where the examination begins. All 18 are built to this depth.

FFIEC-1 Establish IT governance and oversight GOVERNANCE
Put this control in place

Establish IT governance at [your organization name] with board and senior management oversight of technology strategy, risk and resources, defined roles and reporting, so that IT is directed and controlled in line with the institution's risk appetite, and document it, so that IT is governed and the institution can evidence its oversight to an examiner as the FFIEC Handbook expects.

Handbook note.

The FFIEC Management booklet expects board and management oversight of IT.

Evidence an examiner examines
  • The IT governance structure and reporting
  • Board and management oversight records
  • IT strategy aligned to risk appetite
Common finding they raise: IT runs with no board or senior management oversight or defined governance.

Why this is not another template pack

  • The evidence is the point. A control you cannot evidence is a finding waiting to happen. This tells you what an examiner examines and where institutions fall short, for every domain.
  • Governance, security and resilience built in. The board oversight, the risk-based security program, tested continuity, independent audit and third-party risk are written into the controls, the substance the Handbook expects.
  • Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
  • It compounds. The Handbook aligns with GLBA safeguards, NIST and your wider security program, so this work feeds your whole control environment.

Who buys this

Banks, credit unions and their technology service providers, and the IT, security, risk and audit leads who own FFIEC examination readiness. Whether it is a first pass or a pre-examination tune-up, you save weeks and walk in with governance, security, resilience, audit and third-party risk structured.

By the end of the weekend you will have
✓  An adopt-ready control for all 18 examination domains
✓  A completed IT examination control matrix
✓  The evidence an examiner examines
✓  Your governance, security and continuity in place
✓  A readiness percentage and a fix list
